This paper considers a supply chain consisting of a manufacturer under the cap-and-trade emissions regulation and a permit supplier. We study joint production quantity and investment in reducing permit production cost decisions for centralized and decentralized supply chains. We formulate two supply chain contracts with aims to coordinate the decentralized supply chain; wholesale price contract and cost-sharing contract. Under the cost-sharing contract, the manufacturer shares a part of the investment in reducing permit production cost and then is allowed to purchase emission permit at a lower price. We analytically find that the proposed cost-sharing contract with reasonable parameters can coordinate the supply chain whereas the wholesale price contract is not desirable to achieve the system-wide profit. Numerical example is followed to support the analysis.

In studying an EOQ-like inventory model for a manufacturing process, a number of findings were made. The system can "go out of control" resulting in a relatively minor problem state or "break-down". When the production system is in the minor problem statei produces a number of defective items. It is assumed that each defective piece requires rework cost and related operations. Once the machine breakdown takes place, the production system produces severely defective items that are completely unusable. Each completely unusuable item is immediately discarded and incurs handling cost, scrapped raw material cost and related operations. Two investment options in improving the production process are introduced : (1) reducing the probability of machine breakdown, breakdowns, and (2) simultaneously reducing the probability of machine breakdowns and setup costs. By assuming specific forms of investment cost function, the optimal investment policies are obtained explicitly. Finally, to better understand the model in this paper, the sensitivity of these solutions to changes in parameter values and numerical examples are provided.amples are provided.

This paper is to study globalization motives and strategies of Japanese and Korean industries by analyzing the causes and patterns of foreign direct investment (FDI) of the firms of the two countries during the 1980s and 1990s. First we develop a FDI function from the profit maximizing model of firms. Then we use regression analysis to determine internally driving-out factors and externally-inducing factors. Japanese FDI strategy has gone through three different stages; from natural resource-seeking investment in the 1950s and 1960s to market-expansion investment in the 1970s and 1980s and to a combination of cost-reducing (low-cost labor-seeking) investment and market-penetrating investment in the 1990s. On the other hand, Korean FDI behavior has gone through four different stages; from the learning stage with small investments in the 1970s, to natural resource-seeking investment in the early and mid 1980s, to the growth stage in the late 1980s and the early 1990s, to the maturity stage of the mid and late 1990s. The last two stages were characterized by a combination of cost-reducing investment and market-seeking investment. As a late comer, Korea began its FDI two decades later than Japan, but caught up the patterns of Japanese FDI by the mid 1990s and is in a competing position with Japan. Our findings show that both Japanese FDI and Korean FDI in Asia and other developing countries tendto be in labor-intensive sectors where their firms are losing their comparative advantages at home. The main motive for FDI into these regions is low-cost resource seeking. On the other hand, both Japanese FDI and Korean FDI in the U.S. and Europe tend to be knowledge-intensive sectors where Japanese and Korean firms attempt to internalize transaction and information costs by globalizing its production. The main motive for FDI into these regions is market-seeking. Firms in both countries have increased their investments in Mexico and Western and Eastern Europe in order to penetrate large economic blocs such as the EU and NAFTA area. Korean firms are more aggressive in expanding into new and untested markets than are their counterpart in Japan. Evidence of this can be seen in the scarcity of Japanese FDI and abundance of Korean FDI in Eastern Europe and China.

글로벌 경제 침체와 국내 경기변동은 기업의 자금 조달에 어려움을 초래하고 기업 운영을 악화시킨다. 특히 불황기에 직면한 기업이 많은 재고를 보유하고 있다면 운영관리 뿐만 아니라 심각한 자금 조달 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 그것은 경쟁적 우위 차원에서 경영 전략을 수립하여야 되는 기업의 사기를 좌절시킬 수 있다. 이렇게 운전자금 부족이나 운전자금 문제를 겪는 기업은 우선 재고투자 감축을 고려하게 되지만 재고투자 감축 정책은 재고 운영비용을 증가시킬 수 있다. 만일 비용 증가 폭이 크다면 재고감축 정책의 타당성이 성립되지 않는다. 본 연구는 재고투자 감축 크기에 비교해서 총비용의 변화가 크지 않음을 제시하고 민감도 분석을 통해 나타내고 있다. 이 결과는 재고 운영 정책에 따라서는 운전자금 부족 문제가 발생하였을 때 재고투자 감축의 정당성을 제안하고 있다. 여기서 전개한 재고모형은 최대한 현실성을 고려하여 개발하였다.

This paper develops an analytic model for minimizing the cost of distributing items by truck from one supplier to many customers under Milk run logistics strategy. The model derives formulas for not only inventory and transportation costs but also costs associated with carbon emission trading scheme. In addition, monetary investment for reducing carbon emissions is considered. We analyze how to determine optimal shipment size and carbon emission reduction investment. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the effects of carbon emission trading scheme on the Milk run logistics strategy in terms of how much to reduce carbon emissions and/or inventory and transportation costs. We analytically show that it is possible to reduce carbon emissions while reducing inventory and transportation costs by introducing cap-and-trade carbon emission trading scheme under certain conditions.

중앙정부의 환경투자 관련 제조업의 비용구조를 트랜스로그 가변비용함수를 활용하여 분석하였으며, 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중앙정부에서 진행하는 환경투자의 적정 여부를 파악하기 위해 충족도를 살펴본 결과, 적정수준인 1에 못미치는 0.7230으로 분석되었으며, 이에 따라 생산비효율이 발생하고 있다. 그러므로 중앙정부는 환경투자를 적정수준으로 끌어올릴 수 있는 방안을 마련해야 할 것이다. 또한 중앙정부는 환경투자의 부족에도 불구하고 잠재가격이 시장가격보다 작아 투자여건은 유리하지 않다. 그러나 중앙정부의 환경투자는 제조업체의 산출증대를 가져오고, 가변비용을 절감하며, 규모의 경제를 가져오는 것으로 분석되었다. 둘째, 제조업체의 공해방지투자와 중앙정부의 환경투자를 비교해 본 결과, 전자 후자 모두 투자가 적정수준에 못미치고, 투자여건이 양호하지 못하며, 규모의 경제를 가져오고, 산출 증대에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 중앙정부의 환경투자는 정(+)의 잠재가격에 따라 효율적이므로 가변비용을 절감하게 된다. 이에 따라 제조업체는 중앙정부의 환경투자 부족이 가변비용을 증가시켜 생산비효율을 가져오고 있다. 그러나 제조업체의 공해방지투자는 부(-)의 잠재가격에 따라 비효율적이므로 가변비용을 절감하지 못하고 있다. 이러한 제조업체의 공해방지투자 부족은 오히려 가변비용을 절감시킴에 따라 생산효율을 가져오고 있다. 그러므로 제조업체는 공해방지투자를 적정수준으로 끌어올려 효율화함으로써 가변비용을 절감시켜 생산효율을 달성해야 할 것이다.

The addition of disconnect switches to a distribution feeder or the replacement of the manual switches with the automatic switches do, in general, increase reliability by decreasing the duration of the outage of many to the customers on the feeder and reducing the outage section. However, the improvement of reliability in power distribution system causes an increase of the investment cost, for example, replacement costs, labor costs, and so on. For this reason - the balance between investment and reliability improvement - many studies about the appropriate level of investment have been conducted. In this paper, we suggest the algorithm for determining the reasonable switch automation rate in the power distribution system. We evaluate the customer interruption cost and reliability for several cases - these cases relate with the switch automation rate - in the domestic metropolitan power distribution system, estimate the effectiveness of changing the manual switch to automatic switch quantitatively. These results can help the determining on the disconnect switch's automation rate.

Green supply chain management(GSCM) has emerged as an organizational system which helps organizations and their parter to achieve corporate profit by reducing environmental risk and cost. The main objective of this study is to investigate the relationship among organizational factors(manager support and organizational learning), GSCM practices(investment recovery and eco-design) and GSCM performance based on the BSC. Using a sample of 125 Korean companies, path analysis is used to test the research model. The results shows that the manager support has a positive effect on the investment recovery and eco-design. The results also suggest that the organizational learning directly affect the investment recovery, but do not affect the eco-design. The investment recovery and eco-design have effect on the GSCM performance. In addition, the competitive pressure has moderating effects on most of the relationships between the organizational factors and GSCM practices. This findings provides useful insights for managers seeking to adopt GSCM practices, and also provide useful guidelines for researchers to study GSCM performance.
